Summertime

Hey everybody!  Once again, it has been a long time - guess that's how it is going to be.  I am not making anymore promises.

So, what's been going on lately?  Let's see...work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, and....oh yeah, work!  But that's it for me.  Tomorrow starts a new day for me; no more ridiculous overtime and sleepless nights.  I'm just going to do what I can...but enough about that, right?

This past Friday was my first day of orientation for UNCA....I'm really excited.  I was only allowed to sign up for 11 hours, so I signed up for Humanities, Physics: The Milky Way Galaxy, and Calculus 1.  This coming week I'll get to sign up for more - that is, if I am able to fit it into my schedule.  I can't wait for classes to start; I have been waiting for the moment I finally got to study what I wanted to.

Today I did something that I thought was really cool.  I changed the transmission fluid in my car and replaced the filter.  Can you believe it!?  Me working underneath the car with oil dripping all over me!  If I had a digital camera I would have taken pictures.  It was quite the sight.  But anyhow, I am very proud of what I accomplished - the transmission was slipping before I worked on it and it appears to have gotten a little better.  Perhaps I'll get another 6 months to a year out of the car - that would be great!

That's all for now - Deadwood is coming on!  If you haven't seen this show, you should start watching.  See ya!

Stuff from the web...

First of all, you have to check out this site and watch the entire video...

I saw these before/after pics on my daily Rocketboom.com video on my TiVo. I grabbed them from another blog and thought I would post...Pretty wild huh? After I found those I searched for more and found the ocean/islands one.
